Producing work that is epic in concept, sound, and artistic approach, Steve Moore and A.E. Paterra, the masterminds and multi-instrumentalists behind Zombi, have re-imagined the architecture of progressive rock and dynamic instrumentals—carving a niche in underground music distinctly their own. The band’s signature sound, achieved using only electric bass, drums, and a collection of analog synthesizers, is deceptively lush considering its two man skeleton crew ensemble. Moore’s bass playing and meticulous synthesizer programming interacts seamlessly with Paterra’s controlled, precision drumming—as if each man is anticipating his counterpart’s next move. Whether you’re an adventurous listener, diehard fan, or skeptical observer, delving into the latest chapter of Zombi’s prolific and ever-evolving work will never disappoint. - Matthew Newton

Faux Slang layers vocal harmonies reminiscent of 60's pop over heavy synth, kinetic drumming, and dynamic guitars that border on ambient. While drawing influence from bands like The Velvet Underground and Yo La Tengo, Faux Slang incorporates post-rock and post-punk with rhythms that are infectious enough for the tastes of today.
